Study of the Ar()K reaction rate via proton scattering on K, and its impact on properties of modeled X-Ray bursts

A. Lauer-Coles, C. M. Deibel, J. C. Blackmon +21

Background: Type I X-Ray bursts (XRBs) are energetic stellar explosions that occur on the surface of a neutron star in an accreting binary system with a low-mass H/He-rich companio…

First direct measurement constraining the Ar(,p)K reaction cross section for mixed hydrogen and helium burning in accreting neutron stars

J. Browne, K. A. Chipps, K. Schmidt +25

The rate of the final step in the astrophysical p-process, the Ar(,\textit{p})K reaction, suffers from large uncertainties due to lack of experimental data, des…
